Subunit-dependent and subunit-independent rules of AMPA receptor trafficking during chemical long-term depression in hippocampal neurons.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the phosphomimetic mutations of the membrane-proximal region (MPR) in GluA1 AMPAR subunits affect the subunit-dependent endosomal transport of AMPARs during chemical LTD.

Enhanced functional detection of synaptic calcium-permeable AMPA receptors using intracellular NASPM

- 12 Apr 2023 - 
TL;DR: In this paper , the spider toxin analog 1-naphthylacetyl spermine (NASPM) was shown to completely block GluA1-mediated outward currents irrespective of the type of associated auxiliary subunit.

Pathophysiological mechanisms of development of epilepsy and special features of epileptogenesis in the immature brain

TL;DR: It has been shown that the implementation of the mechanism of increased excitability of the fetal brain may be due to the peculiarities of the functioning of NMDA, AMPA, kainate receptors, and the peculiarity of the localization of ion channels in different brain structures.

Driving AMPA Receptors into Synapses by LTP and CaMKII: Requirement for GluR1 and PDZ Domain Interaction

TL;DR: Results show that LTP and CaMKII activity drive AMPA-Rs to synapses by a mechanism that requires the association between GluR1 and a PDZ domain protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

RNA editing in brain controls a determinant of ion flow in glutamate-gated channels.

TL;DR: It is shown that the genomic DNA sequences encoding the particular channel segment of all subunits harbor a glutamine codon (CAG), even though an arginine codon is found in mRNAs of three subunits.
